Brake fluid level at the delivery inspection:

- At time of delivery inspection, brake fluid level must be at MAX mark - 1 -.





To prevent the brake fluid from overflowing from the reservoir, the level must not be over the MAX mark - 1 -.

Brake fluid level at inspection service:

Brake fluid level must always be evaluated depending on brake pad wear.

During operation of the vehicle, the brakes are automatically readjusted depending on wear of the brake pads. Because of the adjustment, brake fluid level will be slightly lower as a result.

Recommended brake fluid level when brake pad wear limit has almost been reached:

"At MIN marking and slightly above" - 2 -: "TOPPING OFF NOT NECESSARY".





Recommended brake fluid level, if brake pads are new or are far from the brake pad wear limit:

"Between MIN- and MAX-Marking".
